If you look closely at the University of Houston’s official seal, you will see a winged hourglass in the center and, above that, an inscription. It says: “In Tempore.” If your Latin is a bit rusty, that means “In Time.”

“I’m hopeful that students will see the faculty-in-residence position
as an illustration that life in the freshman residence hall is not
separate from academic life. They’re actually one in the same,” Ramos
said. “Living on campus means that your entire life is about academics,
about being a student. It’s a unique and special time, and we don’t
want to squander that opportunity to learn and grow.”

One of the newest research centers on the University of Houston campus
is the Nanofabrication Facility, which boasts a state-of-the-art
“cleanroom” that is virtually free of dust and other contaminants and
has strict controls on humidity.
